How cool, just went out to the mailbox and had a surprise, so I'll go into detail alittle for ya'll



1/2NPT x -12an



this is a picture of what it will look like, the fitting on the right(passenger side) will actually be where that tube is coming up. I still need some different fittings to make it look good and fit right. oh and this line is a -12an x 18"

Are you talking about the grill itself or the grill shell?

If your talking about the grill shell, pull the headlights and theres 4 screws to undo



After that undo all 6 top screws, then theres 2 little clips on the bottom that you just have to pull out on it.



If your talking about the grill, thats in the grill shell theres clips all the way around on the back side you have to un clip with a flat head screw driver, but be easy on them they can get brittle from engine heat



let me know if that didn't answer it

Pulled the axle in the garage, gonna start rebuilding it.



I've got to take off these drums to run a pinion brake.

It's been pretty interesting learning these axles, It's the easiest made/worked on thing I've done.



Pulled the chunk, and cleaning/scraping to clean it up some.

Oh and found a date when I was scraping 12-4-53 I tried to take a picture but it kept blurring, pretty cool though (old school)

Thats sweet!

hint: the little flower setting on the camera is a macro setting for shooting 6 inches or closer - the camera will focus on that!
